Hi Thanks for the reply.
I want to develop a sample application using virtual environment without modifying kernel on android platform.
I read about OKL4 microvisor offers SDK

http://www.ok-labs.com/releases/release/ok-labs-introduces-new-sdk-for-okl4-microvisor

Can I download it and use it for my purpose ?

Thanks and Regards,

At the very least check this out (the link is in the above page):
http://www.ok-labs.com/geektv/watch/mobile-virtualization-security-delivered

It demonstrates OKL4's isolation and coordination abilities, aka: decompositioning, using cells.

The lib reference manual at the below link covers cells.

This should give you an idea of what you're looking for which is quite extensive.

Considering OKL4's business model you might simply want to contact them directly with your project.

One thing worth considering is that though OKL4 implements process isolation through the visor
there is nothing stopping any OS vendor, including google/android, from implementing the process isolation and coordination in the OS itself.

The real advantage however of OKL4 is that it does not rely on the OS vendors so doing. That is to say one can implement their own process isolation and coordination independantly of OS vendor efforts. This is a real bonus.

Happy droiding!

Hi Ameya,

Until we have a community edition of our OKL4 Microvisor SDK available, I'd recommend that you contact sa...@ok-labs.com.  Someone there should be able to help you.

Warm regards,

Daniel
